Hi PyTables-users, I wrote a question yesterday, about which version of HDF5 to use together with Win32 PyTables. That was when I was still trying to use setup_tool as prescribed in the PyTables wiki. Later I found the PyTables User's Guide (very nice user's guide by the way), and here there was a section cerning the binary installer for Windows. I have followed that installation (which includes the hdf5) and run the unit tests and it works like a charm, except that it gives an (expected) warning that the LZO library is not accessible.
Today I have read about PyTables optimization and it seems like it would be a benefit for me to actually use LZO due to its very fast decompression. In the user's guide there are some instructions of how to get hold of LZO - it is mentioned that one should place the lzo.dll in the path and so on, and some advice is given to look at LZO in the Gnuwin32 package I have now spend several hours trying to find an lzo.dll starting from here http://gnuwin32.sourceforge.net/packages/lzo.htm However, the links to sourceforge all report that the lzo binaries are not there. Also on the inventors page, I cannot find a working link to Windows binaries: http://www.oberhumer.com/opensource/lzo/ Then I had a look at the LZO Wikipedia article: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/LZO where I found a link to the German "fan" site: http://www.lzop.de/ where binaries should be avauilable and i found this: http://www.lzop.de/download/ordinary/lzop-1.01_win32_native.zip but that zip file only contains an exe file and no dll. Then I have found a small .net wrapper project on sourceforge: http://lzo-net.sourceforge.net/ where they also mention lzo.dll (inactive since 2004), but I cannot find the dll there - they refer to the inventors page for the library already listed above.ยจ I did find the soyurce and some makefiles for ver 1.08 here: http://www.lzop.de/download/source/lzo-1.08.tar.gz but I do not have a c compiler. So how can I get hold of lzo.dll for win32? Any help would be appreciated.
